As alumni and supporters of UCLA, your voice is crucial in urging Congress to support biomedical research at our institution and across the country. 

The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) is the single largest funder of research at UCLA and the University of California system. Our UC campuses compete nationally to conduct NIH research on behalf of the country, to find cures and develop therapies for diseases and other health afflictions.

On Feb. 7, the NIH announced an abrupt and unprecedented cut to funding for biomedical research. If allowed to continue, this cut will be crippling to the biomedical research efforts at UCLA and all the UC campuses. The proposed cut will the result in significant setbacks to our pursuit of science and our nation’s leadership in biomedical innovation. 

Please use this link to reach out to your members of Congress 

Urge them to prevent this cut from moving forward. 

Thank you for your support of UCLA and biomedical research.
